singing with my feet

Here's the dilemma folks; to buy or not to buy. I really want these shoes. I have them here in my house. I ordered them from the catalogue. Just so that I could look at them. But, if I'm honest with myself, I cannot afford them. I am poor and I cannot afford new lovely gorgeous shoes. Shoes that I really really really really want.

If anyone would like to buy this drawing for exactly £75 that would really help me out with this dilemma. I admit it, I'm a shoe whore.

That's a very clever way to purchase something you can't afford—draw it and then sell the illustration. I'm going to go right now and draw the Harley I've been wanting and then maybe, just maybe, someone will purchase it for $17,000. It could happen. You think?

Dear Andrea, Thanks for illustraing for me why women find shoe so tantalizingly sexy. I would love to see also the foot that would fit inside that shoe...thanks for coming back to your fold so impressively..still and always a fan ...keep your chin above your fist...a true fan , tim

you kill me (with laughter) i love this illustration, and i'm a dude that doesn't understand the allure of shoes to women. My oldest calls herself a shoe whore also. If i had the cash i'd send it right now, so you could get these. this drawing just pops out and grabs you. Do the shoes come in a mans size 11 (US)? hope you get to keep 'em.

Hey Andrea, I'd gift you the shoes if I could! Your middle name must be "genius" because you've come up with one very novel idea!! I hope someone will buy your drawing for double that, because it's worth every penny!

WOWZA! I think this drawing is one of your best! Everything looks so perfect. I wish I could buy your drawing. £75 is nothing to someone who is working and earning though, so I'm sure someone will buy will buy it - I would, if that 'working and earning' person was me!

I too, am a shoe whore, and if I had the cash, I'd buy something from you in order to assist you with your lovely addiction. I'm also a Buddhist though, so I know how important it is when we weigh and balance what we need vs. what we want.

I wish you luck in obtaining the fantastic shoes you desire. If you're meant to have them, you will.

Another great drawing full of character and presence. What a wonderful start to the New Year for you! . I am enjoying leafing through your Molezine, which I received before CHristmas and now I am looking forward to your Mod series

The genius of selling-the-drawing-to-keep-the-shoes aside (and it is genius), the drawing itself looks like airbrush. I had to click and enlarge it to appreciate all those delicate ballpoint pen marks. Fantastic sketch. Congratulations on being able to keep the shoes, too!

I saw this post Andrea. I was laughing- I thought it was wonderful! I was going to suggest that you draw your on money! Their is a none "Artist" that has done this. The US Mint wishes He would go away. Here is a sight: http://artscenecal.com/ArticlesFile/Archive/Articles1999/Articles0999/JBoggsA.htmlYes Rick, He bought a motorcycle a Harley I think. I was a young girl when I saw the 60 minute show on him. His name is JSG BOGGS- seems he is mentioned in a scam on Haiti. Yes, the IRS chases him all the time.I was going to suggest. A print Limited print and all of us could assist- Print of course would have had to have a authenticated remarque. Glad those shoes are on your feet. Where is the photo? Oh, did you see Anita Davis' new Shoes? You must go to Her blog and take a peek. Definitely want a photo of those shoes on feet.

Forgot to answer this: How much is 75 GBP= $123.00~ approximately USD or 127.00 Canadian dollars or 86 Euros.I hope that gives you a small insight to some of Our true currency as opposed to Art dollars.Oh, what paper did you do the wonderful drawing on?
